Started getting difficult around 20 meters on the way up. I was just sitting holding my breath. I’m sure I wouldn’t have made it the whole way exerting energy like the river. BRAVO!! Edit: held my breath the whole dive. Just took 5 full and deep breaths before.
I think what most people dont consider is that he's not diving 60 meters but 120 because he is going 60 meters each way. That on top of doing it without fins is extremely impressive.
I'm surprised that I was able to hold my breath for the whole video. Taking deep breaths beforehand to the point of getting a bit lightheaded so as to super oxygenate the blood works incredibly well.
My highest dry hold was 3:45 stagnant and felt like I was simultaneously going to poop and pee myself, moving that much I'm not sure I can last more than 2:00 at my peak and now I can barely go 2:30 dry
I can say this, I can most likely make it to the bottom but getting up I would drown 😂 . I wouldn't even make it halfway back up. Just touch the bottom and pull out the oxygen tank.
I held my breath with him until he touched the bottom, turned and pulled up once then I had to exhale😂. Too bad I’m too overweight to sink to the bottom of anything. Im naturally buoyant.
@@KalunaFreediving I think it depends how fat they are - because fat doesn't compress much (or at the same rate the water compresses, which is only 5% at the Mariana trench). If they've got hundreds of extra pounds they could be a human oil slick.
Any advice for dry training that doesn't involve static apnea? I love to freedive but hate sitting around holding my breath for an hour at a time. I can go to 30m now pretty comfortably but dont have buddies to train with so i have to do dry stuff.
Obviously I’m just laying in bed watching this video, not diving, but I’m a little scared how easy it was to hold my breath the whole video… could have went longer but idk if that would start hurting my brain??
FWIW I was able to hold my breath just enough to make it to the bottom, but will have to do more pre-breathing to hold it enough to make it back to the surface.
